´´Tuma Madoo´´ is a powerful and thought-provoking track that dives deep into the concept of Black Tax—a cultural phenomenon experienced by many Africans and other nationalities worldwide. This concept refers to the financial responsibility of supporting family and community beyond personal obligations.
The song reflects on the joys, challenges, and resilience involved in fulfilling these expectations, shedding light on a reality many can relate to but rarely discuss in music.
Through soulful rhythms and captivating melodies, Tuma Madoo delivers an authentic Kenyan and African vibe, blending traditional influences with contemporary sounds. It’s not just a song—it’s a conversation starter about balancing dreams with duties, navigating family ties, and finding empowerment in shared responsibilities.
